I had my laptop and Ipod stolen, I need to re-download my itune purchases
Hello kind Apple Users
I recently had my home broken into, and my laptops and Ipod nano stolen. How can I re-download my purchased itunes please?
Thanks
Amy
With iTunes 11, you shoudl be able to authorize the computer with your apple ID, and then iCloud will allow you to redownload the purchases.

Was your backuip copy of your computer stolen as well?
If not, then use it to put everything back.
If it was stolen as well, then you can try contacting itunes support and asking for and exception to the one download. They are under no obligation to allow this, but it is worth a shot.
Sorry about your computer. -
Obviously I spent a lot of money on my old computer and on tracks for the iTunes library plus iPod and I don't wish to have to buy all those tracks again - though I had no choice but to buy a new laptop and iPod.
It looks as though i would be in situation where i have both accounts on the same computer but need a seperate ipod for each but i cant afford to but another ipod so i am letting things be as they are. I now back-up all my stuff in my current itunes library to an external driver so if the laptop breaks down i at least have saved the music to install on a new laptop or netbook. I would sign up for the icloud to save my music on that but as i understand it the cloud will only hold itune purchased tracks and those imported from cds and not any mp3 tracks purchased from another online retailer.
Thanks for helping me come to a long overdue descision on my original query. -
Crap! Computer and iPod stolen, help!
OK - I think I won't like the answer. But I just have to ask before re-paying for my music again.
My laptop and iPod were stolen. I'm about to order a replacement iPod (Touch). And now, I'm thinking about my music library.
I stupidly didn't back up my music. I just reloaded iTunes and am forlorn to see an empty library. Is there any way that I can reimport the music I've already purchsed thru iTunes store? The iTunes purchase history screen is teasing me by listing all of the music I've purchased with the old iPod.
If I can reload/reimport/re-download music I've already purchased with my old 'puter, that would save me a boatload of cash. (And I figure that I'll just synch my incoming iPod to this 'puter and be good to go again).
Thanks in advance for everyone's help. (Or laughing AT me)I think that may have to re-purchase the music but you may be able to get your insurance to cover this. I don't know your specific details so you would have to contact your insurer.

I'm stuck on "waiting for items to copy" when I try to sync my laptop and iPod touch. It was fine until the latest update. It's very frustrating. What can I do about this?
Hi maasailand giraffe,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
First of all, thanks for the detailed notes of the troubleshooting steps you've already tried. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what is going on in your specific case, but I do have a few more ideas for you to try.
Starting with just one of your iPads, when you get stuck on the "waiting for items to copy" step, just disconnect your iPhone. There are probably some orphaned or corrupt files that need to be addressed. I would suggest closing all of your open apps and then backing your iPad up to iCloud. Then review the articles below to move or delete any big files on your device. These can include Voice Memos (iPhone), music, photos on your camera roll, photos or videos that are attached to your Messages, email attachments, etc.

If you need to sync from iTunes, check your settings in the Summary tab to be sure you are only syncing items you have placed a checkmark in front of.

Give this a try on one of your iPads, and hopefully these steps will work for your other devices as well.

I have two apple id's one from my old laptop and one from my iPhone. I saved my iTunes library to my external hard drive right before my old mac laptop died and then tried to transfer it to my new iMac. Now when I try to play my old music it skips like a scratched cd. Also, now I can't add any music to my iPhone unless it was purchased recently through itunes and downloaded through icloud. I tried to "Organize" my library in hopes of correcting the problem but my iMac just ejects my external harddrive part way through. Please help!
Ejects the harddrive?
Of what did your old Mac die?
It sounds to me like you have some file corruption somewhere. Either in the transfer of your library to the external or the external itself is flaky if it keeps ejecting. -
My iPhone 4s is not switching on, I connected it to itunes thru my Windows 7 laptop and it says phone needs to be restored. I clicked okay and it started the process however the progress bar with the apple logo is on the screen, progress in the bar did not start yet after 5 hours. Some one please hep me.
I did put it in DFU mode but its still not working, although everytime it shows your iphone needs to be restored. Kindly help.

Check your Adobe account online. If you registered the software when you first installed it then the serial number might be available there.

Hey i have a old powerbook G4 laptop and i was wondering where can i download the OS ( Mac OSX 10.5.8 Build ( 9L30 ) to do a fresh install my system is running really slow is there any place where i can down load this OS?
Hello,
Unfortunately Apple do not offer a download for mac OS X 10.5.8. They will only provide updates available for download. ( Normally you would do so once the OS is installed)
To do a fresh install of this software your going to need to buy a retail copy of the disk.
There are some vendors who do still stock the media disk, but they can be expensive.
Best of luck. -
I have downloded ITunes to a new laptop and signed in this let's me download previous purchases in to the librery but can't get the films I have bought quite a lot over time any idea how I can get them ???
You cannot.
You buy one and only one download of movies. it is your responsibility to backup your purchases.
Copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one. -

Downloaded Canon printer/scanner drivers for Canon PIXMA MP520 and MX860 on Mac Book laptop, and they worked. However, when I downloaded the same two drivers on Mac Book Air, neither worked.
I wasn't aware that VueScan charged a yearly license.
You simply launch Image Capture and if the scanner is recognized it will be listed in the SHARED list in the left display column. Select the scanner name and the app will start an overview scan. You will also see a list of scanning options in the right display column (resolution, paper size, file output format, etc.
The above description is when everything is working correctly, which has been the case for me.
Good luck. -
